Chemistry |
Study of matter and it's properties, composition and changes |
|

Matter with uniform composition |
|
2 groups of pure substance |

substance composed of 2 or more kinds of atoms and can be decomposed using heat or electricity |
|

Combinations or pure substances |
|
2 groups of mixtures |
Homogeneous Heterogeneous |
|
Homogeneous |
Same throughout They are uniform and consist of only one phase |
|
Heterogeneous |

|
Physical change |
Substance maintains chemical properties but changed physically |
|
Chemical change |
New substance is formed there is a rearrangement of atoms and/or ions which creates a new compound. Changes are often irreversible |
